- Summary:
- The tiny, little-known country of Belarus has suffered more than any other in the aftermath of the 1986 Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Thousands of villages and towns were abandoned or evacuated, and their populations resettled to safer areas. Grünberg visited one of these villages where we meet the Tsiplaevs, a family of ethnic Russians who had recently left their native Chechnya. Like many, they have chosen to risk their health, and the health of their children's children, in exchange for a life without the constant fears of living in a war zone.
